Guestimating PLoS ONE impact factor
Abhishek Tiwari did some analysis on the number of citations that PLoS ONE is getting so far using Scopus database. We had a small discussion over the numbers on FriendFeed and I ended up looking at different set of values also from Scopus. I tried to predict the first Impact Factor for PLoS ONE that might be out sometime this year.

Before showing the numbers I will repeat again that I think the IFs of the journal where a paper is published is a very poor measure of a papers importance. Although it is probably a good measure of the relative value of a journal (within a given field) we should be striving to pick what we read based on the value of a paper instead of the journal.

The Impact Factors that will be published this year are calculated as the total number of citations from 2008 to papers published in 2006 and 2007, divided by the number of citable units in 2006-2007 (articles and reviews). The data I am looking at is from Scopus so it varies a bit from the one in ISI. The variability comes from the decision of what to include as "citable" articles and from the journals that are covered in Scopus versus ISI.

One problem I found with Scopus data was that, for some journals, the database has multiple entries due to small variations in article titles. For PLoS Biology, PLoS Computational Biology and PLoS Genetics the number of articles published should be less than half of what is reported. This does not appear to be the case for PLoS ONE.
I downloaded the tables of published articles and tried to removed redundancies looking at the tittles and authors. I counted only articles and reviews as citable items but used all articles published in 2006-2007 to get the number of citations in the year 2008. I also did the same calculations for the impact factor of the previous year to be able to compare with the data from ISI. The results were comparable but not the same.



In summary, PLoS ONE might get an impact factor of about half of the expected for PLoS Computational Biology. The usual disclaimers should be said: I have no idea of how complete Scopus data is and how exactly it relates to ISI.

这个期刊的审稿政策决定了论文的平均水平不高。但同时他们还是发表了少数高水平的论文。通常一个期刊的影响因子主要取决于引用率高的前20%左右的论文的引用次数,后面大多数贡献不大,所以我的评估应该在1以上,但不会太高,应该小于3.

同时,SCI收录与否也没把握。现在是ISI Web of Knowledge 收录了,但ISI Web of Science没有,后者才包含SCIE.

我之所以设置最后一个选项,是担心Plos One和LNCS一样的下场。

PLoS One现在还未收录到SCI中,因此今年ISI可能不会统计它的2008年影响因子了。不过,有人早已利用Google Scholar对PLoS One在2007年发表的文章进行了引用统计,结果计算出其IF=5.68。虽然他们没有统计该杂志2006年文章的运用情况,但PLoS One在2006才刊登137篇论文(而2007年为1229篇),所以对统计结果影响不大。就算2006年全部文章引用为零(这是不可能的),PLoS One的IF也达到5.11。所以说,2008年PLoS One的影响因子应该在5以上。
